About to be turned into 'orange goo' by the thoroughly nasty alien dug Sebulba, poor Jar Jar is thankfully rescued via the timely arrival of Anakin Skywalker, brave enough to challenge the top pod racing pilot's anger and ego, in this memorable moment from EPISODE I. A special shout out to Scottish actor Lewis MacLeod for his voicing of Sebulba.

"That (Sebulba's distinctive walking style) came from the lead animator, Miguel Fuertez. He had seen a 1932 movie called Freaks. In that movie there's a man with no legs, Johnny Eck, and he walks on his hands. He was the true inspiration for Sebulba's walk. Miguel and another animator, Patrick Bueno, pretty much handled everything for Sebulba. I loved how he played with his whiskers, when they were standing behind the pod racer."
